Event Description
The Between the Lines book discussion group will read The Breakaway by Jennifer Weiner. Books for this discussion can be picked up at the Dyer-Schererville branch a month prior to the event.
Summary: "Thirty-three-year-old Abby Stern has made it to a happy place: she's got good friends, her bike, and her bicycling club. She's at peace with her plus-size body, and is on track to marry Mark Medoff, her childhood sweetheart, who she met at weight-loss camp. It feels like the happy ending she's always wanted. If it weren't for the memories of one thrilling night she spent with a man named Sebastian two years previously...
On a cycling trip from NYC to Niagara Falls, away from Mark, Abby spots Sebastian in the group. In spite of their chemistry, Abby is determined to keep her distance. Then her mother, Eileen, joins the trip. This is the woman Abby blames for a lifetime of body shaming and insecurities. Over two weeks and more than seven hundred miles, Abby is forced to reconsider everything she believes about herself, her mother, and the nature of love."
